“…We also examine the structural basis of the endopeptidase/deubiquitinase from the Marafivirus type member, maize rayado fino virus. Structures of the enzyme alone and bound to Ub reveal marked structural rearrangements that occur upon binding of Ub and provide insights into substrate specificity and differences that set it apart from other viral cysteine proteases.…”

“…We explored the changes in soil physicochemical properties, nutrient uptake and utilization, and microbial community composition in wide-strip intercropping of maize and peanut. RESULTS: The results from three treatments, sole maize, sole peanut and intercropping of maize and peanut, showed that intercropped maize had a marginal advantage and that the nutrient content of roots, stems and grains in side-row maize was better than that in the middle row of intercropped maize and sole maize. …”

“…OBJECTIVES: To evaluate bioavailable Fe, total Fe concentration and phytate concentration of whole and degerminated maize in a diverse panel of 52 genotypes. This work sought to expand upon previous work which identified the germ fraction of the maize kernel as an inhibitory component for Fe bioavailability. …”
